Campus Champion

Non-Traditional Student Week Nov. 15 to 19 celebrates our undergraduate students who often balance college with commitments such as family, jobs and long commutes. Lauren Murphy does all that and is active on campus. She’s treasurer of the Non-Traditional Student Organization and a valued member of the Transfer Network Team. Weekdays, the inclusive early childhood education major works an early-morning shift at a day care, commutes 50 minutes to campus and puts in a full day before heading home after dark. With 250 non-traditional students on campus, there are plenty of reasons to submit your nominations to the Celebrate-a-Non-Trad! Campaign.
